Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in unto the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's chamberlain, the keeper of the women, appointed. And Esther obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her.

The verse 15 is found in chapter 2 of Esther. When Esther's turn comes, she follows Hegai's advice and asks for no additional adornments. The king chooses her as queen and a great banquet is held. Her coronation places a Jewish woman at the center of Persian power, although her identity remains concealed.

Da nun die Zeit Esthers herankam, der Tochter Abihails, des Oheims Mardochais (die er zur Tochter hatte aufgenommen), daß sie zum König kommen sollte, begehrte sie nichts, denn was Hegai, des Königs Kämmerer, der Weiber Hüter, sprach. Und Esther fand Gnade vor allen, die sie ansahen.
Y llegado que fue el tiempo de Esther, hija de Abihail tío de Mardochêo, que él se había tomado por hija, para venir al rey, ninguna cosa procuró sino lo que dijo Hegai eunuco del rey, guarda de las mujeres: y ganaba Esther la gracia de todos los que la veían.
Cuando llegó el turno de Ester de presentarse ante el rey, no pidió nada excepto lo que le indicó Hegai, eunuco del rey y guardián de las mujeres. Ella era hija de Abihail, tío de Mardoqueo, quien la había tomado como hija suya. Ester se ganaba el favor de todos los que la veían.
Lorsque son tour d'aller vers le roi fut arrivé, Esther, fille d'Abichaïl, oncle de Mardochée qui l'avait adoptée pour fille, ne demanda que ce qui fut désigné par Hégaï, eunuque du roi et gardien des femmes. Esther trouvait grâce aux yeux de tous ceux qui la voyaient.
Così, quando fu venuta la volta ad Ester, figliuola di Abihail, zio di Mardocheo, il quale se l’avea presa per figliuola, di entrar dal re, ella non chiese nulla se non ciò che Hegai, eunuco del re, guardiano delle femmine, direbbe. Ed Ester acquistò la grazia di chiunque la vide.
Chegando, pois, a vez de Ester, filha de Abiail, tio de Mardoqueu (que a tomara por sua filha), para ir ao rei, coisa nenhuma pediu, senão o que disse Hegai, camareiro do rei, guarda das mulheres; e alcançava Ester graça aos olhos de todos quantos a viam.
